3.
A finite region is bounded by the curve with equation \(y = x + x ^ { - \frac { 3 } { 2 } }\), the \(x\)-axis and the lines \(x = 1\) and \(x = 2\)
This region is rotated through \(2 \pi\) radians about the \(x\)-axis.
Show that the volume generated is \(\pi ( a \sqrt { 2 } + b )\), where \(a\) and \(b\) are rational numbers to be determined.
